Created With Franky & Skippy In Mind

Some brands begin with market research.

Some begin with trends.

Some begin with a whiteboard, a pitch deck, or a list of what’s selling.

Shepherd's Naturals began a different way.

It began with two dogs.

Meet Franky & Skippy

Franky is the kind of dog who brings energy into a room just by entering it. Big-hearted, playful, curious, and never too far from wherever the people are.

Skippy is smaller in size but large in personality. Quick, alert, and somehow always exactly where your next step was about to land or where the food crumbs fall.

Together, they’ve brought a lot into our home:

Joy.
Routine.
Laughter.
Companionship.

And, of course:

Messes.

Water around the bowl.
Toys in unexpected places.
Paw traffic through the kitchen.
Nose prints on glass.
The everyday signs of a home that’s fully lived in.

They Changed How We Thought About Cleaning

When you live with pets, cleaning becomes more personal.

You notice what goes on the floors they stretch out on.

You think about what’s used around bowls and feeding areas.

You pay attention to what lingers in the air.

You care more about what you reach for every day.

Franky and Skippy helped sharpen those questions for us.

Not because they caused problems.

Because they reminded us what mattered.

Real Homes Need Real Products

We didn’t want products chosen only because they were common, cheap, or heavily advertised.

We wanted products that felt right to use in a real home with pets.

Products that were:

• Thoughtfully made

• Effective for everyday messes

• Clear about ingredients

• Pleasant to use

• Worth keeping within reach

That standard came from daily life with Franky and Skippy.

Not from a boardroom.

Everyday Inspiration

Some of the best ideas don’t arrive all at once.

They come through ordinary moments:

Cleaning around the bowl after breakfast.
Wiping prints off the glass.
Straightening up the room after toy scatter.
Resetting the kitchen at the end of the day.

Those small routines taught us what we wanted a cleaner to be:

Reliable.
Comforting.
Easy to trust.
Ready to use again tomorrow.

More Than Mascots

Franky and Skippy aren’t marketing props.

They’re family.

They are part of the reason this brand exists.

They shaped how we think about home, about care, and about what quality should feel like in everyday life.

They reminded us that pet homes deserve products built with intention.

Why This Matters

Anyone can make claims.

Anyone can design a label.

But building something from lived experience creates a different kind of standard.

When we say our products were built for homes where pets are family, we mean it—because that’s our home too.

Franky and Skippy helped define that truth.

From Our Home to Yours

Shepherd's Naturals was built with bowls on the floor, toys underfoot, prints on the glass, and dogs nearby.

Built with experience.
Built with intention.

Built with Franky & Skippy in mind.

From our home to yours,

Scott & Gabie
